Tokyo photography tips: travel vlog

EPISODE SIX: WHERE & HOW I SHOT THIS VIRAL IMAGE

Hi friends. We finally make it to Tokyo in the Japan series vlogs. It’s a short stop in my favourite city before we head off again on a road trip around the main Honshu island of Japan. In this episode we fly from Sapporo to Tokyo and hit the town for drinks with my Tokyo friends. We stop by Inspiration Cult Bar & Gallery which is my friend Yuma’s bar. If you get the chance to drop by please do! It’s such a cool bar that is a short walk from Shibuya.

From there we wander around Shinjuku a little and I show you where & how I shot this viral crossing image of mine. There is no illegal climbing of any buildings to get to this vantage point (it’s also free). I also show you quickly how I edited the image. I also share a secret tip of mine on where to shoot the Shibuya crossing. Ignore what all the other blogs say about the Starbucks vantage point (it sucks and they are wrong). Check out the vlog above if you have a second.

Here are some stills from this day / episode:
